Springfield
was designated aWORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION SAFE COMMUNITY in 2011

“In the short time we've been here, I've learned some new things about moving to a city like Springfield. The community is very close knit and full of caring, appreciative people. We are surrounded by the beautiful Ozarks, and it doesn’t take very long to get anywhere in the city. Also, the health care industry here is top-notch with very highly trained, courteous physicians, nurses, and staff. I am fortunate to be part of it.”
